text: PHILADELPHIA - Eagles quarterback Michael Vick practiced on a limited basis Tuesday, but there is no word on his status for Sundays game vs. Dallas. Vick suffered a hamstring injury against the New York Giants two weeks ago and missed last Sundays game at Tampa Bay. He threw passes on Tuesday, did some light jogging, and worked in individual drills for Philadelphia (3-3). But he did the same last week, in preparation for the Buccaneers, only to skip the Eagles 31-20 victory. Should Vick miss Sundays home game, which is for first place in the NFC East, Nick Foles would play against the Cowboys (3-3). The Eagles have won consecutive games after a three-game skid.

Head coach Corey Chamblin announced on Monday that Avon Cobourne had been hired as the defending Grey Cup champions new running backs coach.INDIANAPOLIS -- Of the three quarterbacks projected to be picked at the top of the NFL draft this year, Blake Bortles is considered to be the most raw. This, he freely admits. "I have no problem with that. I need coaching. I need help. I think everybody in the game does," Bortles said. He is also determined to make up the difference, fueled by the belief he can become the best prospect at this heralded and critical position. "Im going to do everything that I can here to make sure that when I leave theres other people saying that besides me," Bortles said Friday at the NFLs annual scouting combine. Bortles was measured at an ideal 6-foot-5 and 232 pounds. He has a strong arm and decent athleticism for his size. He didnt face consistently top-tier competition at Central Florida, but he has shown steady improvement and shined at the Fiesta Bowl in his last college game before deciding to skip his senior season. "To give you a complete evaluation at this point, I dont think Im ready to do that, but I can tell you weve watched enough that were very intrigued by him, the traits he has: big, tall, timing, accuracy, decision making," Jacksonville coach Gus Bradley said. "Those are the things we take a close look at." With Houston at No. 1, Jacksonville at No. 3, Cleveland at No. 4, Oakland at No. 5, and Minnesota at No. 8, teams all seeking a long-term solution at quarterback, there is almost no way Bortles, Texas A&Ms Johnny Manziel or Louisvilles Teddy Bridgewater will still be available after that. Bridgewater, who wasnt available to reporters on Friday, declared early for the draft like the two others. But he is the most polished. "You can put the tape in and watch him do things and say, yeah, that translates to the next level," NFL Network analyst Mike Mayock said. "Hes not as much a wild card as Manziel, and I think hes more developed in his reads and throws than Bortles. So thats why I say I think hes the most ready to play." Bortles will throw in front of the teams and their evaluators Sunday when the quarterbacks test their skills at Lucas Oil Stadium. It is a seemingly simple decision now seen as risky by some prospects under advisement from agents to limit their participation to pro day workouts on their own campuses. Bortles stood at a podium Friday with poise, polish and plenty of confidence, not brash but sure sounding ready for whatever the NFL will bring.dddddddddddd. He revealed Brett Favre as his childhood favourite and said he sees Ben Roethlisberger and Andrew Luck as contemporary examples of the type of quarterback he can develop into. He even boldly mentioned Tom Brady and Peyton Manning. "By no means am I those guys," he said, adding: "I 100 per cent believe that eventually I can do what those guys do." Bortles also emphasized his character during the mini-sales pitch he made to the media, undoubtedly similar to what hes sharing with the teams themselves during screening interviews throughout the weekend. "I wont embarrass an organization off the field by making maybe bad decisions or anything like that," Bortles said. "I wont embarrass my familys name, and will be a trustworthy guy and a trustworthy player." Perhaps that was a subtle shot at Manziel, the biggest headliner of this class. Manziel was all business in his news conference Friday, but he wont soon escape the tales of off-the-field shenanigans and questions of character that have followed him from Texas A&M. In many ways, Bortles is the opposite of Manziel, starting with the skill sets. "He is a big guy. He is athletic. He is a competitive guy," said Houston coach Bill OBrien, whose Penn State team was beaten by Bortles and Central Florida last year. "It has been fun to watch him play on tape. It will be good to work him out here." Derek Carr of Fresno State, Jimmy Garappolo of Eastern Illinois, and A.J. McCarron of Alabama comprise the consensus next tier of 2014 quarterback prospects. McCarron, of course, has what none of the others do: two national championships. In the hyper-saturated world of professional football analysis, somehow those titles have managed to become a potential weakness for McCarron, who had the benefit of maybe the most talented roster in the country around him. "Everybody says I played behind NFL talent at Alabama. Well, usually thats whats in the NFL: NFL talent. So I dont know how that can be a knock, really," he said, embracing the old chip-on-the-shoulder mentality. "Ive been disrespected my whole college career, because I won." ' ' '

In order to carry out the declared policy of this state that licensed gaming be conducted freely and honestly, and in order to protect the welfare of the employees of the gaming industry which is fundamental to the economy of this state, it is necessary to determine the suitability of any person who performs or seeks to perform certain significant functions in the representation of gaming casino employees in this state.

NRS 463A.040 Grounds for disqualification of personnel of labor organization. The Commission may individually disqualify any person from performing any one or more of the functions whose performance requires listing, if it finds that:

4. The person's moral character and integrity, as evidenced by the person's prior conduct, are such as to create a reasonable belief that performance by the person of the specified function would not be consistent with the policy of this state that gaming be conducted freely and honestly or with the welfare of the employees of the gaming industry.

The City of New Ulm Engineering Department can provide an ESTIMATED location of the sewer service based on the original record drawings. The sewer service can be televised and located by a plumber who has specialty equipment to provide this service. Along with locating the sewer service, the plumber can inspect the sewer service to see the condition of the pipes.
Under New Ulm Public Utilities (NUPU) Regulations, the sanitary sewer service is the responsibility of the property owner from the house to the connection at the City sewer main.
If the home has a sump pump, check to make sure it is not draining into the sanitary sewer system. The discharge must run from a permanently installed discharge line from the interior of the home to the exterior of the home, draining to the City storm water system.

NUPU regulations state that the property owner is responsible for the water service from the house to the curb stop. Identifying where the curb stop for the property is will tell you where and how long the water service is to the home.
Water service repair is the responsibility of the homeowner. The homeowner's responsibility is from the home up to the curb stop. The New Ulm Public Utilities' responsibility is from the curb stop to the City water main.
The property owner shall maintain accessibility and proper grade of the curb stop riser box. Proper grade is defined as flush with finished grade to no more than 4 inches below finished grade. If grade is adjusted by New Ulm Public Utilities, the property owner could be billed for adjustment to grade, correction to operable vertical position, and/or relocation in conformance with local and state requirements.
On all water services up to 1 inch, there shall be a lock wing valve on the inlet side of the meter, and a gate valve on the outlet side of the meter. A water meter which is 1½ inches or larger in size is required to have a bypass water line. The property owner has the responsibility to keep water shut-off valves operable and accessible at all times.
New Ulm's water hardness averages 511 ml/L or 30 grains/gallon.
Your Realtor or real estate agent can tell you the service size and if the house has fuses or breakers.

If an appliance, like a refrigerator, is 15 years old or older it may be time to replace it with an efficient Energy Star appliance. Some appliances that are Energy Star rated can save a up to 30% energy compared to non-Energy Star certified appliances. New Energy Star certified appliances may qualify for a rebate from New Ulm Public Utilities.
If the age and condition of an appliance is unknown, try looking for the model number on the appliance. Locating a model number is not difficult. It is generally located on a paper sticker or a metal plate attached to the appliance. If it cannot be located, try locating a user manual that may have been left by the past owner. A model number can help aid in finding the age of the appliance and its energy consumption.
